marie sullivan george w. bush. dick cheney. so although selections, really the vice president contribute something bible to the ticket and all the vice presidents were active players in the white house. we seen that role with joe biden who has played a very important role in afghanistan and back in the war in iraq. and its biden also brought the foreign policy national security credentials to the obama white house. biden having served on the committee for years and years and years. so for those reasons i think the vice presidential debate matters, plus this year, finally i would say this year is so tight, this race could come down to as we all know a handful are one or two swing states impressed even a few counties in the swing states. every vote matters. after obama's rather poor performance and romney's strong performance in the first debate i think eyes will be tuned in on his vice presidential debate, and what biden, what paul ryan said probably matters. >> let me pick up on the point about these debates and the reference t
